a Lost Opportunity.


M. George u ashington Cole OF
Chicago, didn't come home one
evening at the usual time, nor the
next day, and Mrs. Cole, becoming
alarmed, began search for him
She was not successful, and after
several days, as a last resort, visited
the morgue. The keeper listened
to her description and then said he
thought he had subject that an
swered TO it. The wife desired to
look at the body, and she was
shown into the dead-house.
After viewing the subject pointed
out to her very intently for several
minutes, Mrs. Cole burst into tears
and declared that the body was
that of her late husband. But in
order to assure herself that she had
made no mistake, she requested the
keeper of the morgue to turn the
body over, and see if there was a
large scar on the back Of the neck.
AS he proceeded to do so, set OF
false teeth fell out of the corpse up
on the marble slab.
"Stop!" exclaimed Mrs. Cole,
wiping away her tears; George
never wore false teeth"
You blamed foolr growled the
keeper Of the morgue, addressing
the corpse, as he roughly threw it
back in place and picked up tbs
false teeth; ifyou had only kept
your mouth shut you might have
had a decent burial" Prom the
